Asteroid Protocol is an open-source metaprotocol that enables on-chain inscriptions and CFT-20 fungible tokens on Cosmos Hub. Asteroid Protocol's Twitter Score is 18 out of 1000 as of September 2026, ranking #55,160 among 486,860 tracked accounts.
Asteroid Protocol was co-founded by Redphone and Donovan Solms, developed as a collaboration between Delphi Labs and the Astroport Foundation, and launched publicly on January 16, 2024. Redphone originated the Cosmos inscriptions concept internally at Delphi Labs, while Donovan Solms served as the lead engineer behind the initial implementation. The protocol operates as a generalized, extensible metaprotocol framework that embeds structured inscription data directly into Cosmos Hub transactions, requiring no bridges or external systems.
Asteroid Protocol supports permanent on-chain storage of media and other content, CFT-20 fungible token deployment and minting, inscribed collections, and an on-chain marketplace. Its open-source stack includes an indexer, explorer, public GraphQL and REST API, CFT-20 specification, and both front-end and back-end tooling. The software and specifications are explicitly described by the project as unaudited and experimental. The first CFT-20 token deployed on the protocol was Asteroids (ROIDS), a proof-of-concept token with a stated maximum supply of 100 million and a per-transaction mint limit of 1,000 tokens; the creators stated at launch that ROIDS carries no value and no roadmap and should not be treated as an investment.
Asteroid Protocol has accumulated more than 1.2 million inscriptions at peak, more than 300 CFT-20 tokens launched, and more than 15,000 unique inscribers, according to the official site. Asteroid Protocol has published 1,776 posts on the platform and has 6,350 followers as of September 2026. It has been mentioned by 37 accounts, with 147 total mentions.
